What did you use for study resources?

Congratulations!!!!!!

Congratulations!!!! I am going for mine in February...my New Year's Resolution!

I'm going to take the test in February with the new format test. Anyone else taking the new test?

I am going to take the test in February. I had the same question as the previous poster. I'm understanding that the Pass CCRN book is not outdated and will still be a great resource then. I'm still trying to get a few resources together. I know wh...

My only worry is that I am taking it in February and that will be the new CCRN format. Will these study materials be outdated? I'm unsure what book to get here now....

We took the Hesi Test yesterday for our graduating class. I scored a 960. I am not sure what that means. I do know that our teacher wanted us to originally score a 900 and at the least over 850, so I know that I did that, but I'd like to know wher...

Survivor08, you CRACK me up! Keep in touch. We WILL get there and thanks about the hint regarding the crash cart!!! Wendy

That is a great idea. I grid of tasks throughout your shift. I think I'll work on making something like that this weekend. I don't think its childish though because until it becomes 2nd nature to me, I just can't remember every single thing. Dual...

Sterren, I am SOOO glad that you posted this thread. I, too, am a new grad in ICU. I am in my 5th week of ICU orientation on the floor. I passed my NCLEX and went through 4 years of college, but feel like I know nothing! Yes, I know that I am exagger...

Congratulations!!! Way to go!! I take mine in July. Can you give me an idea of what you're referring to for a mcg/ml question? Math is my weak point and I'm practicing all I can. Thanks!

I hate to say it, but I didn't study. I had a hard last semester with 6 tests to include renal, MH, Peds., Maternity, Cardiac/Respiratry & Neuro and the next week we had the Hesi test. I studied like crazy for each one of those tests throughou...

P.S. I noticed you are from CT also. I am graduating in June from Western Connecticut. How about you? Best of luck to you! Wendy

So I'm in good shape!!!!! YES!!!!! Thank you so much!!!! What a relief! Wendy

I do realize that there is a thread for PDAs here on this site, but what I've realized is that all of the responses that I am receiving are from nursing students and I really need to ask advice from new grads who are now out in practice. I will be ...

My cousin went to St. Vincent's. It was incredibly tough, but I think that is with any nursing school. Naugatuck Valley Community College also is a good nursing program to check out. I don't know where you're located though. Wendy

Are you looking for a two-year program or a four-year program. That makes a big difference.... Wendy

I'm so sorry! I absolutely misunderstood what this thread is about! Thanks for the clarification and sorry for the confusion! Wendy

There was an option on the Drexyl University site in which 5 NCLEX questions would be sent to you a day. I guess you get it through Yahoo Widgets, whatever that is. I tried to do this, but the widget software doesn't work. Has anyone else used any...

I just had two interviews and had two offers. I have my last one on Monday. My first one was fairly easy. They mainly wanted to know what my goals were and where I saw myself in nursing. I took a tour of the unit and they wanted to know if I had ...

Hi, Are you referring to the Kaplan NCLEX-RN Exam 2008-2009 with CD-ROM: Strategies for the Registered Nursing Licensing Exam ? Thanks!

Hi, I am new to the forum and I am so glad that I found it. I can't believe that I am actually thinking that the NCLEX is around the corner. I thought this nursing school would never end! I've been studying Saunders NCLEX book and have reviewed th...

Did you just use Saunders? I have the 3rd edition now...
